Chapter 393 - Demonstration of Power (2/2)

Tan Jianbai, Tan Ningfu, and her mother were all stunned and were overcome with a sense of trepidation. Who’d have expected Xiao Luo to have such terrifying moves? What’s more, he even dared to attack people from the Public Health Bureau and police department.

Xiao Luo stepped over the four men groaning on the floor as if he was taking a stroll in a garden and ominously stepped toward Mrs. Tan. His eyes were as cold as ice, sending a s.h.i.+ver down her spine.

“W-wait… w-what are you trying to do… huh?”

Mrs. Tan shuddered in fear as she stuttered in a trembling voice.

Tan Jianbai returned to his senses, and rushed in front of his wife, extended his arms to s.h.i.+eld her. After all, she was his spouse, and although Tan Jianbai meant every word he had said when he hurled those insults at her earlier, he still couldn’t bear to watch her toes getting smashed. That would be too much for him to handle.

Nervously, he pleaded, “Mr. Xiao, I’m sorry, I didn’t discipline my wife well enough. If you feel angry, take it out on me.”

“This has nothing to do with you!”

Xiao Luo jabbed his right index finger swiftly, tapping Tan Jianbai’s chest, specifically on his center acupoint. Suddenly losing strength and control of his entire body, Tan Jianbo slumped to the floor. His limbs felt weak, and he was unable to move.

An acupoint attack?!

Despite laying on the floor howling in pain, the four officers immediately recognized the technique and were taken aback. They had a profound understanding of the human body, and these acupoint strikes that were often described in martial arts novels and believed to be mere fiction existed. The acupoints of the human body were as complicated as a night sky full of stars. If adequate force was applied accurately on the acupoint, it was possible to immobilize someone for a specific time.

So far, all their research was limited to theory and had not been practiced in reality. Now that these officers themselves had witnessed a genuine acupoint attack, how could they not be surprised?

Tan Ningfu was in a stupor despite knowing all along that Xiao Luo was an enigma. Why else would the higherups of the airport authorities have blacked out news of the Boeing 747 incident, if not to prevent the media from learning about this man?

Know how to fly an airplane, being extremely skilled in medical practice, and seemingly a past master in martial arts like those from legend. To have all these characteristics packaged into one single person could only mean that this man was extraordinary.

“D-don’t come any closer… do not come any closer!”

Mrs. Tan screamed in panic, fearing for her life.

Tan Ningfu watched in dread as Xiao Luo steadily approached her mother in slow, deliberate steps, as her mother retreated in fear. Suddenly, Mrs. Tan tripped over herself and fell to the floor, but she still continued using her hands to push herself backward.

“Mr. Xiao…”

Tan Ningfu ran toward Xiao Luo, but before she could say another word, Xiao Luo instantly tapped on her acupoint, and just like her father, she collapsed as her body lost all its strength.

Now that he had compromised everyone else’s ability, Xiao Luo stared at Mrs. Tan with a maniacal smile. Swirling his body on his left leg as its axis, he rotated his body, swung up his right leg, aiming a kick toward Mrs. Tan’s head. The winds howled as he unleashed it, and Mrs. Tan’s brain would soon be turned to mush—it would be a fatal blow.

Right at that very moment, something flash in Xiao Luo’s mind—he was reminded of Ji Siying asking him not to kill again.

WHOOSH~

His devastating right foot stopped inches from the left side of Mrs. Tan’s head. A strong wind swept into her, causing the flesh on her face to ripple. Mrs. Tan went pale in horror, and suddenly a dark patch appeared on her crotch—she had wet herself in fear!

Xiao Luo frowned, and with total control over his body, he withdrew his foot from her face and said, “You are now exempted from death, but not from the punishment that you justly deserve! Your husband dotes you, spoils you, and will turn a blind eye whenever you misbehave. You only receive a token reprimand for your vile deeds. But unfortunately, I’m not familiar with you and will not let you trample on my head!”
